That really was a great interview. Your personality came through so well and it’s made me curious to see how it comes out in your writing.

I had so much fun, Tony, because you were really a pleasure to work with. Plus you made me laugh, which gives you +1o pts.

Thanks again!

Fantastic interview, Anthony, and a pleasure to meet you–the only other writer who will admit that writing is a masochistic endeavor.

And oh, how I love it so. 🙂

Congrats on your soon-to-be teacher status!

FLood, SW, Jason,

Thanks to all. This has been a wonderful process, and I’m sad to see it end.

I really enjoyed your interview at Flood’s Anthony. One of your comments that really made me chuckle was “When I received my first rejection letter, I felt like I was initiated into a club. The writer’s club. All you have to do to join is put yer ass on the line and come away smiling.“

I still remember that feeling too! Well said!

Cheers,Jade

Jade, Thanks so much. Yeah, that first rejection may hurt a little, but it also makes you feel like a real writer.

Anthony,

Just a quick note to comment on your interview. Like I said over there, I enjoyed it immensely as I do most your writing and your blog as well. Thanks again for the insights.
